  • Lepidoptera : Rhopalocera) from Sidhi District, Madhya Pradesh, India

KOSHTA Central Regional Station, Zoological Survey of India, Jabalpur - 482 002 INTRODUCTION The present. paper deals with the studies on butterflies of hitherto unexplored area of Sidhi district, which is situated in eastern part of Madhya Pradesh. The district is bordered in east by Mirzapur district of Uttar Pradesh. The area of Sidhi district is 10526 sq. km., of which about one-tenth area along the western slope of Kaimur Hill was surveyed. The butterflies were collected by the senior author and other team members during the f;nvironmental Impact Assessment studies of Ban Sagar Canal Construction on Faunal Components in July, 1999. The study revealed the presence of twenty seven species under twenty two genera and seven families of which two species viz. Spindasis ictis ictis (Hewitson) of family Lycaenidae and Badamia ex clam at ion is (Fabricius) of family Hesperiidae are recorded for the first time from Madhya Pradesh and all twenty seven species are reported for the first time from Sidhi district.

  • Rapporteur's Report on Regional-Variations in Agricultural Performance in the Last Two Decades Rapporteur: S.Mahendra Dev*
    Ind. in. ofAgri. Econ. Vol. 52, No. 3,,luly-Sept. 1997 RAPPORTEURS'REPORTS Rapporteur's Report on Regional-Variations in Agricultural Performance in the Last Two Decades Rapporteur: S.Mahendra Dev* INTRODUCTION The problem of regional disparities has plagued Indian policy makers from the beginning of our development planning. There have been a number of studies on regional variations in agricultural performance. A notable feature of the studies on agricultural performance in India is that trends in agricultural growth are available even at the district level for the last four decades. For example, Minhas and Vaidyanathan (1965), Bhalla and Alagh (1979), MahendraDev(1985), Bhalla and Tyagi(1989) have analysed patterns in agricultural growth for almost all the districts of India. The state level and the district level studies,in general,show that there are large disparities in agricultural performance across regions. Certain regions such as Punjab, Haryana, Western Uttar Pradesh, have benefited more during the initial phase of the green revolution than others. This had accentuated regional disparities in the immediate post-green revolution period. Recent studies at the state level, however,-showed that the overall agricultural growth was higher in the 1980s as compared to the 1970s and there had been much more equitable spread of agricultural growth in the 1980s and 1990s (Sawant and Achutan, 1995; Bhalla and Singh, 1997). According to Bhalla and Singh (1997) the period 1980-83 to 1990-93 marks a turning point (in terms of growth) in India's agricultural development. After per- forming poorly during the early years of the green revolution, many of the states where poverty is widespread - Assam, Bihar, Orissa, Madhya Pradesh and West Bengal - have shown significant growth in the 1980s.

All errors are ours. Abstract This paper explores the relationship between kinship institutions and sex ratios in India at the turn of the twentieth century. Since kinship rules varied by caste, language, religion and region, we construct sex-ratios by these categories at the district-level using data from the 1901 Census of India for Punjab (North), Bengal (East) and Madras (South). We find that the female to male sex ratio varied inversely by caste-rank, rose as one moved from the North to the East and then to the South, was lower for Hindus than Muslims, and was lower for the northern Indo-Aryan rather than the southern Dravidian speaking peoples. We also find that the female deficit was greater in wheat growing regions and in areas with higher rainfall and alluvial soil. We argue that these systematic patterns in the data are largely explained by variations in the institution of family, kinship and inheritance.

  • An Overview of Socio-Economic Infrastructure in Maharashtra State
    Ind. Jn. of Agri. Econ. Vol.61, No.3, July-Sept. 2006 An Overview of Socio-Economic Infrastructure in Maharashtra State K.V. Deshmukh* Following liberalisation several economic reforms have been carried out in the country. Sustainable economic growth is responsive to infrastructural facilities. The planners of the country are giving paramount importance to this sector. Maharashtra state is leading in providing infrastructural facilities. Here an attempt is made in the paper to quantify certain parameters of infrastructure including the socio-economic aspect. The required data were collected from Economic Survey of Maharashtra for the year 2004-05 and Maharashtra Economy in Figures 2001 published by Directorate of Economics and Statistics, Government of Maharashtra. The data thus collected were analysed by simple tabular method. The study indicates that the state is leading in providing various socio-economic infrastructural facilities like education, transport, per capita electricity consumption, as compared to the national level. It is observed that education has been well developed in the state. Besides the economic infrastructure like roads are also well developed in the state. Power sector indicates that consumption of electricity for agricultural sector is on an increasing trend. Thus the study revealed that the state is well-developed in socio-economic infrastructure. Still there is need to give prime attention towards health, national highways and rails. This may enable the state to uplift the socio-economic status of the people.
